Pros:

Μια υπέροχη διαμονή, στο παλιό λιμάνι των Χανίων! Ευγενικό προσωπικό, άψογο πρωινό, καλαίσθητα και ευρύχωρα δωμάτια! Σίγουρα θα το επισκεφτούμε ξανά με την πρώτη ευκαιρία!

Traditional hotel room on the historic harbor with spectacular view of the lighthouse.
Pros:

The location is very convenient to everything and the view from the room to the lighthouse is spectacular.

Cons:

The service by the staff is lacking. Sometimes there is no one at the reception desk and You pretty much have to do everything yourself. Also the city just changed the rules so we could not park where our hotel representative told us where we could park.

Sea view and the spacious room.
Pros:

The location is perfect in the old town. Get a room with a sea view. It was wonderful. The property is clean and cozy. It's really an amazing deal for the quality. Will book again.

Cons:

If you have a very late flight make sure to stay in contact with them because it is not a 24/h front desk. Had a bad experience the first night, but I gave them a second chance chance the next day. It was worth it

Bardzo udany pobyt poza szczytem turystycznym.
Pros:

Wielkość apartamentu, bajeczny widok z okna, balkon wchodzący w serce miasta pozwalający na relaks, ścisłe centrum, świetne śniadania, bardzo wygodne duże łóżko.

Cons:

Jacuzzi które niestety nie było odgrzybione. Dysze bardzo brudne przez co nie dało się z niego skorzystać, a miało być dużą atrakcją.
